For the price, this is a great way to get started! I bought this for the agency where I work, and we had a tight budget for figures. The list of items accurately portrays the categories of miniatures included. Great way to accumulate items from key categories without spending tons of time and money. I think I am especially going to value the 2 hollow houses, trees, tealight, and variety of professional and family figures.

However, I think a few minor changes to the kit could make it really shine, without adding many additional figures. I'll be making some changes before I really feel comfortable using this with clients. The only religious symbols in the kit are a cross and 2 angels, and I think a few more symbols would be important. I'd also sacrifice some animals (not really!) in order to have one animal family. None of the animals in the kit could be related. If the single strip of wooden fencing were replaced with a small set of plastic fences, I think the "Boundaries" would be much more versatile for clients to use. Fences are super important in sand tray. Some of the camels (there were 6!) could be replaced with monsters, sea creatures, signs, or even shells or stones. And finally, but perhaps most important to my work, some of the white figures need to be replaced by figures of color... the set is not as diverse as it suggests it is! With a little adding and replacing, this kit is a great way to get started quickly!

I have purchased this item to go to a trauma centre in Pinetown, South Africa, where it will be used with children and adults that have suffered various forms of abuse. The contents of the pack look wonderful and exactly what the centre need. I am sure it will be put to good use.

Recommended if you are just beginning your sandtray miniatures collection

I am so grateful for this starter kit. I cannot recommend it more highly, especially if you are just beginning your sandtray miniatures collection. I already had many pieces, but this kit caught my eye. In particular, I saw the wooden coffin, skeletal hands, etc, and knew I needed to add those items. I was intrigued by the collection and so ordered the whole kit. What arrived includes a full array of pieces for the expressive arts, ranging from mythical to dark, from farm animals to trees, fences, beautiful natural rocks, small miniatures of food, angels, wooden people, and more. I have had several sessions with teens and adults choosing these items for their sandtray work. I was so happy to have such a wide selection for them to choose from. Lastly, the price is excellent for this kit. If I had tried to replicate it on my own I am sure I would have spent far more money.
